Dana Remus, an outside legal counsel for the Biden campaign and the Democratic National Committee, said during an online meeting that the wisest, most prudent legal course would be for the party to select its nominee before Aug. 7, instead of at the convention, which begins on Aug. 19.
Unfortunately, at this moment in time, we have to assume that everything about the election process that Republicans and affiliated groups can challenge, they will challenge, Ms. Remus said. No matter the strength of their arguments.
Some have worried that the party is trying to nominate Mr. Biden as soon as possible to lock him in as the party's standard-bearer against former President Donald J. Trump.
On Friday, at least eight more Congressional Democrats, including Senator Martin Heinrich of New Mexico, called on Mr. Biden to withdraw from the race.
